On one hand, written notice requirements are important tools to safeguard fairness in the litigation of disputes. And most of the processes that require notice in the landlord-tenant context require that notice to be in writing. See, e.g. , Minn. Stat. §§ 504B.135 (2018) (requiring written notice to terminate a tenancy at will); 504B.145 (2018) (requiring written notice to enforce an automatic renewal clause); 504B.206, subd. 1(b) (2018) (requiring written notice to terminate a lease agreement because a tenant has been a victim of violence). Written notice is a valuable part of the landlord-tenant system and protects landlords and tenants alike. Written notice can also give landlords the opportunity to remedy issues before litigation begins.
